Angry Birds Go! vs Mafia III
Angry Birds Go!
Angry Birds Go! infuses a fun downhill racing gameplay with the popular Angry Birds franchise. Developed by none other than Rovio Entertainment, this game will quicken your pulse in a jiffy as you do your best to stay ahead of the other racers and secure the first place. However, things do get a little bit crazier when ramming is involved - yes, you can actually ram other racers' karts in hopes of destroying them, flipping them over, or at the very least veer them off course. You can even lift-off in your kart via handy jet boosters!Like most racing games, you'll also get to upgrade the 4 main aspects of your "rig", including speed and maneuverability, or you can opt to switch out your old kart for a new and much better one instead. There are tons of fun and familiar characters you can play with as well!
Although Angry Birds Go! isn't exactly your typical, slingshot-based Angry Birds game, it is still a pretty well-made, competitively multiplayer racing game that will definitely get your adrenaline going.
Mafia III
Mafia III is the long-awaited second sequel to the popular mafia-themed action-shooter game, Mafia. Set in the 1968 after the Vietnam War, the game casts you into the role of Lincoln Clay, a Vietnam veteran who had his entire surrogate family, the black mob, wiped out by the Italian Mafia. Vowing revenge for your family, you'll need to build a new mafia from the ground up and bring the fight to the Italian mob. It is either you or them and there is no in-between.Similar to the previous, the game has the same brilliant gun fights, hand-to-hand melee combat as well as heart-pounding car chases with cops and rival mobs alike. You can even choose how you approach a mission the way you like due to the open world nature of the virtual city you'll be roaming around in. Of course, being the leader of a mafia, you will also need to make some hard decisions when deciding who to promote and who to let go as "a necessary casualty". One thing for sure, you'll do whatever it takes to avenge your brothers.
Despite some bugs and glitches, Mafia III is still a great sequel that fans of the series will most certainly enjoy. It still retains its deep gritty feel and the plot, although somewhat cliche (see: Saints Row), is good enough to keep the game going.
